Definitely go to "Sicko"! It was really great and inspiring. And still funny, without being all gonzo-wacky(I mean, I like it when he does that, but I can see why it irritates, also.) It's also touching, and I'm not usually a woman that cries in the movies.

I'm about to go see Transformers, and I'm almost as excited to see the Cloverfield trailer (clearly, not on YouTube) as I am to see the movie.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I just put in Latter Days with no idea what it was about or why I put it in my Netflix queue. It opened with a most awesome sex scene and then in the next scene there was Amber Benson! I still don't recall why I put it in the queue.

Hey Joseph Gordon-Levitt's in it too!

That was a good one. Trashy, but good.

Trashy but good oughtta be its own genre.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Just saw Ratatouille.

Lovely, fun, beautifully made film. I loved it as much as the 4-year-old and 9-year-old we went with, who were both completely captivated for the whole movie.

I gotta say I disagree on the trashy in re: Latter Days. I thought it was the sweetest love story since Brokeback Mountain.

Transformers was awesome! There were giant robots transforming into things and then transforming into robots! It was totally sweet! The plot was nonsense, as it was written by Alias writers, but that's not the point. Giant robots! Beating the crap out of each other! Things blowing up! Woooo!!!

Also, the Cloverfield trailer was a thousand times better in the theater. Wow. I'm really excited for it now.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The plot was nonsense, as it was written by Alias writers, but that's not the point.

If only I'd kept that in mind back when Lost first began to air.
